3.2. Release Notes

During a Satellite 6.2 upgrade, as part of the host unification feature, if a host and content host are found with the same name but within different organizations, the content host will be unregistered. This will remove the content host from the Satellite. Consequently, once the content host has been unregistered by the upgrade process, it is possible that errors will be observed in /var/log/foreman/production.log as the content host may still attempt to interact with the Satellite via Red Hat Subscription Manager (RHSM).

The errors can include ones similar to the following:

2016-06-20 04:02:30 [app] [E] RestClient::Unauthorized: Katello::Resources::Candlepin::Consumer: 401 Unauthorized {"displayMessage":"Invalid oauth unit or secret","requestUuid":"56562131-15b1-482b-86c3-a74da4b19491"} (GET /candlepin/consumers/c1d5c956-b9c5-4088-914b-fd5e0e828c32)

2016-06-20 04:22:23 [app] [E] RestClient::Gone: Katello::Resources::Candlepin::Consumer: 410 Gone {"displayMessage":"Unit c1d5c956-b9c5-4088-914b-fd5e0e828c32 has been deleted","requestUuid":"4d433cb8-e94a-49dc-9d2f-eebdc7066e55","deletedId":"c1d5c956-b9c5-4088-914b-fd5e0e828c32"}

Workaround

Prior to performing the Satellite 6.2 upgrade, the user should execute the pre-upgrade script on the Satellite 6.1 Server to obtain a summary of the content hosts that will be unregistered. The script may be executed as:

foreman-rake katello:upgrade_check

Prior to the upgrade, the user should then update the hosts and content hosts to ensure that they are in the correct organizations. If this is not done prior to the upgrade, the user will need to re-register each of those content hosts using the Red Hat Subscription Manager command-line tool after the upgrade has completed.

In Satellite 6.2, Docker support has been upgraded from Docker v1 to v2. With this change, Docker has made fundamental changes in its data model to move from supporting Docker Images to supporting Docker Manifests. Due to the significance of this change, any existing Docker v1 repositories will be removed from the Satellite during the upgrade process.
